So here we are with the fifth and final principle...
When you hold a knowing in your heart that we are all aspects of the Divine and that any feelings of separateness are simply an illusion, you will understand that unkindness in the end hurts you, perhaps most of all. Since we are all one, being cruel or rude to another human or animal will be hurting an aspect of yourself, of the Divine.
You can start by being kind to yourself. In time, you can extend that compassion outwards into universal compassion for all living beings. But be gentle with yourself. It’s a process. And the first step is often the hardest, but it’s also the most important one!
